50 WAYS TO
IMPROVE YOUR
IMPROVISATIONAL SKILLS
by Tom Kolb
This book/CD pack explores
all the main components
necessary for crafting wellbalanced rhythmic and melodic phrases. It also
explains how these phrases are put together to form
cohesive solos. Many styles are covered – rock, blues,
jazz, fusion, country, Latin, funk and more – and all of
the concepts are backed up with musical examples.
The 50 ideas are divided into five main sections: The
Basics – covers fundamental but all too often
forgotten techniques, such as slurs and vibrato, that
can breathe new life into your phrases; Melodic
Concepts – explores various aspects of melodic
phrasing, such as motifs, chromaticism and
sequences; Harmonic Embellishments – discusses
the melodic potential of harmonic intervals (dyads),
chords and chord partials; Rhythmic Concepts –
explores various aspects of rhythmic phrasing, such
as accents, free-time phrasing and metric modulation,
and how it pertains to melodic soloing; Solo
Structure – all of the topics discussed in the book
come together to help form the big picture. The
companion CD contains 89 demos for listening, and
most tracks feature full-band backing. Also available
for keyboard, tenor saxophone and trumpet.

Christian. The author shows how the chord shapes – F,

R&B, SOUL AND FUNK
GUITAR: 1945-1965
Inside the Blues
by Dave Rubin
The years 1945-1965 saw a
radical and exciting shift in
American popular music.
Blues and swing jazz helped to produce a new musical
form called rhythm and blues, which in turn set in
motion the development of soul and funk, not to
mention rock ’n’ roll. What united these genres was an
emphasis on the beat, or the groove, over the melody
that would culminate in the syncopated monochord
workouts of funk. Along the way, some of the greatest
electric guitarists of the postwar years explored the
boundaries of the new instrument with a rich array of
hot licks. This book/CD pack explores everything from
the swinging boogie of Tiny Grimes, to the sweaty
primal funk of Jimmy Nolen, to the styles of Mickey
Baker, Billy Butler, Steve Cropper, Cornell Dupree, Jerry
Jemmott, Curtis Mayfield, Ike Turner and everyone in
between. Includes in-depth lessons, historical analysis,
rare photos, and a CD with 33 full-band tracks.
